One of the nicest campgrounds we've ever stayed at. Two weeks and no problems. enjoyed watching the boats and yachts pass through the lock. Even saw a bald eagle fly by.

Amazing, peaceful, quiet location. Clean bathrooms. Within the campground, one "lap" is about a mile so it was perfect to get in a pre-dawn walk safely before we were on the road at daylight. Each site has a nice firepit. We thought the site was pretty large too, compared to other places where we have been really tight to neighbors.

Always a pleasant stay. Beautiful view of the Florida Prairie. Lots of wildlife and enjoy watching the boats go through the lock.

I love this sight! Larger space and very nice. Bathrooms/ showers could use an update. Friendly attendants.

Disappointed that the foot bridge and fishing pier is still closed.

Everything was clean and the staff was very helpful! Everyone helped contain a lost dog.

It was wonderful. So peaceful. The bathhouse & grounds were nice & clean. The park attendant ( I think his name was Loyal) was so nice. Thank you.

Well kept camp sites. Clean bathrooms. Flat bicycling. Great sunsets off the pier. Eagles, otters, birds. Interesting small yachts and sailboats in the locks.

If the Park wants to use a gate to restrict entry, it should invest in an automatic digital code punch for entry and an automatic vehicle sensitive drive up lift gate for exit. The current times to open and close the locked gate (7:30 am and sunset pm) make it difficult to open a rotary code padlock in the dark. Particularly for those who have some difficulty seeing this presents an unnecessary problem and inconvenience.
